March 31, 2026. Productive day. Went to the dentist for the hygienist, X-rays and a checkup and left with zero cavities. So yay! Got my final time sheets completed, and wrapped up the project with DRDC. Also we had our last team meeting. Brought home many of the speaker's gifts I've accumulated over the years - not sure where to put them but I value them. #SDDaily

Primavera Sound Porto 2024: PJ HARVEY
(P.S. The original name was 'Content Addressible Resources for Education' but while working today with Claude to rebuild it I never told it this, so the current name is Claude's best guess as to what CARE stands for - now I have mixed feelings about what the acronym should officially be)
(P.P.S. if you think I'm just vibe-coding with Claude, think again. There's a lot of thought going into the design and back-and-forth between Claude and me)
I've completely rewritten my CARE application — Content-Addressed Resource Exchange. This was my project from a few years ago to distribute Open Educational Resources (OER) on IPFS, a decentralized file storage system. https://github.com/Downes/CARE-project
An account is required to upload, and the demo version is a 'hermit' node, not actively publishing to IPFS, but the code includes full IPFS support. https://care.mooc.ca/
(I wanted to do all this 10 years ago but it was way too far ahead of its time)

Woodpecker #DailyPhoto #Photography ottawa, bird, 2026365 March 29, 2026. We went for a walk along the Ottawa River Valley today - it's that point where there's not enough snow for winter sports but there's too much snow for bicycles - the perfect day to walk these trails. https://ift.tt/9fCVA2R
